    From authors' abstract: We analyze the problem of lift maximization for a smooth closed countour with point singularities (sources or sinks) placed in an inviscid incompressible flow under the condition that the stagnation point lies on the countour. A mathematical formulation of the corresponding optimization problem is given. Its analytical solution is reduced to two simpler problems, which are investigated numerically in the general case.
